It is believed that it can replenish the body's "vitality", help restore energy, and gradually recover from fatigue and regain abundant vitality. This conditioning is not aimed at a specific disease, but improves the body's weak state as a whole.
Respiratory discomfort is also a common application area for cordyceps. Traditional concepts believe that it has a certain conditioning effect on long-term coughs, sputum and other conditions, especially for those who often feel shortness of breath due to weak lung function. In cold seasons or when the air quality is poor, the lungs are easily affected by external factors. Cordyceps is regarded as nourishing the lungs, enhancing the "resistance" of the lungs, reducing the onset of symptoms such as coughing and asthma, and making breathing smoother and more comfortable.
For the conditioning of kidney function, cordyceps also occupies an important position in traditional health care. Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is the "innate foundation", and kidney dysfunction may cause problems such as soreness of the waist and knees, dizziness and tinnitus. Cordyceps is believed to nourish the kidneys and improve physical discomfort caused by kidney deficiency, such as making the waist and knees stronger and relieving fatigue. It also has a certain conditioning effect on frequent urination at night, helping to maintain the normal function of the kidneys and making the body's metabolic cycle more stable.
Cordyceps is also often used to regulate the condition of insufficient qi and blood. Qi and blood are important substances for maintaining the normal functioning of the body. Insufficient qi and blood may manifest as pale complexion, cold hands and feet, and lack of energy. In the traditional health concept, cordyceps can help "replenish qi and nourish blood", allowing qi and blood to flow smoothly in the body, improve the above-mentioned discomfort symptoms, make people's complexion ruddy, restore warmth to hands and feet, and improve the overall mental state, showing a healthy complexion from the inside out.
For those with weak constitutions, cordyceps is also a commonly used conditioning ingredient. People with weak constitutions are often easily afraid of cold, and they may experience abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms if they are slightly cold, and their body's ability to adapt to changes in the external environment is weak. Cordyceps is believed to have a warming property, which can dispel the "cold" in the body, enhance the body's resistance to cold, reduce physical discomfort caused by cold, gradually transform the body from cold to peace, and improve the body's adaptability to the environment.
In terms of regulating sleep, cordyceps is also valued by traditional health concepts. People who have poor sleep quality, dream a lot, and wake up easily for a long time are often because of imbalance of yin and yang in the body and restlessness. Cordyceps is believed to nourish the mind, reconcile the yin and yang of the body, help improve sleep, make it easier to fall asleep, reduce the number of waking up at night, and improve the depth of sleep, so that the body can be better repaired in sleep and keep a clear mind during the day.
In addition, cordyceps is often used for conditioning during the recovery period of some chronic diseases. When people experience a serious illness or surgery, the body is in the recovery stage and all functions are relatively weak. At this time, gentle nourishment is needed to help the body rebuild balance. Cordyceps is believed to be able to gradually replenish the nutrients needed by the body, promote the recovery of the functions of various organs in the body, enhance the body's overall "defense", reduce the recurring discomfort that may occur during the recovery period, and allow the body to gradually recover in stability and return to a healthy state.
